With the advent of nanotechnology, a new era for the development of biological products has opened. Multifunctional mesoporous silica-based particles fulfil critical requisites for the preparation and characterization of nanotechnology products. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) have distinctive structural features, such as large surface areas and tunable pore sizes, with particular suitability to deliver hydrophobic cargo intracellularly and tunable surface properties. Combinations of various nanostructured materials will enable the development of a multifunctional MSNP hybrid. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles have recently attracted much attention due to their significant potential for tumor treatment and imaging. Functionalized mesoporous silica materials have recently shown rapid growth in imagistic and curative applications. Multifunctional mesoporous silica nanocomposites have a higher capacity for drug loading and chemical release compared to amorphous colloidal silica. Therefore, MSNPS is an ideal platform for constructing multipurpose tools that incorporate various functional nanostructured materials. This review summarized the most recent advances in mesoporous materials research and discussed the use of various nanocarriers conjugated with MSNPs. High potential characteristics and exciting practical applications highlight different manufacturing strategies for these hybrids (noble metals, carbohydrates, up-conversion and magnetic nanoparticles (NPs), quantum dots (QDs), and photodynamic therapy (PDT)).

Standardized measures were used to examine depression level during supplementary examination. Methods : This cross-sectional and descriptive study was conducted during January and February 2018 in The Allama Iqbal Medical College Lahore. Information is collected from the students of 1 st , 2 nd , 3 rd , 4 th & 5 th professionals. A questionnaire is designed to check depression level that consist of socio-demographic characters of respondents & PHQ8. Analytical methods used were mean, median, mode, standard deviation, range (maximum, minimum) & percentile. Results: Total number of 188 students including male 76(40.4%) & female 112(59.6%) were approached out of which 67% having no clinical depression. Major depression & severe major depression were found in 29.8% & 2.7% of our respondents, respectively. Depression level was higher among female students as compared ...
